in Old style MoneySaving
I like to read frugal blogs and forums... and I love to watch Old Style Frugal Channels on You Tube.

I have my favourites on Youtube like What Vivi Did Next, Loving Life on Less ... and Pennies to Dollars, they all do money saving Old style.

 Do you have any suggestions for other good old style channels to watch? 

Thank you in advance. Xxx

    Frugal Money Saver is US based but very good.
    Frugal Queen in France.
    Would be nice to find more UK based channels and blogs.

    She doesn`t post very often but I do enjoy Grandma Donna`s blog - based in the US, she and her husband `study` various years gone by, they read through old diaries and then subsequently research the years.  I find her very sweet and endearing.

    I love Frugal Money Saver. I love seeing the difference between US and UK housekeeping, food, shopping and ways of moneysaving.

    Shoestring Jane, Frugal Lizzie Bee and Be free be frugal are my favourites and very inspiring. Frugal Tess is good but seems to have stopped posting - you can watch her old posts though.
